“Rachel is a wonderful dog walker! She is super responsible, communicative, and flexible. Most importantly, she has kept our 7-month-old puppy happy and well-exercised when we are gone for long days. I recommend Rachel to anyone looking for loving and trustworthy pet care!”

About: I’ve had multiple pets since I was young and always had a great love for all animals. I have had my dog since I was 6 years old and been taking care of her since then. Neighbors and family members have always trusted me taking care of their cats, dogs, bunnies, and birds and I love meeting and forming a connection with them all! I also have experience with senior and special needs as my dog had some behavioral issues in the last few years of her life and she has taught me a lot about having compassion for everyone. 🩷 My school year is over so I am currently home for the summer and will have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I also am available on breaks as well and would love to walk your dog during those times! I am majoring in animal studies with a minor in environmental studies in college and have a very strong love and passion for all animals. I have a big fenced yard for your dog to run around and play in! My both love all types of pets and are super welcoming.

About: I have had dogs for 20 years. I have had 3 smaller dogs in the past (14-25 pounds). 2 were pug/beagle mixes and 1 was a Boston terrier/beagle mix. I currently have a bigger dog (83 pounds) who is a German Shepard/Australian Shepard/Rottweiler mix. I also had a cat growing up for 8 years. I love to spend time with animals going on walks, playing with them and making sure they are well taken care of. I have experience with puppies, adolescent and senior dogs. I can’t wait to meet your pet and be there to help whenever you need! I’m currently a stay at home mom and am at home most days. I have 2 school aged children and I have flexibility and availability in my daily schedule. I am open to helping out with any and all needs for your pet. I can come to your home and care for your pet based on what you specify your pet needs and your preference's. I am willing to do dog walking, playing with dogs or cats, and the general needs such as feeding and ensuring they have clean, fresh water. I will take care of your pet with the same love I show my own pet.

About: I have been pet sitting for five years. Caring for animals and helping others in the process is something I truly enjoy; animals are my passion. I love interacting with them because the love they give is the most sincere love any living being on earth can offer—which is why, whenever I look after a pet, it feels like I am caring for my own family. Currently, I am dedicating myself full-time to pet care. I am dedicating twelve hours daily to care for pets and can also offer overnight stays. I can crate your dog if needed. I can also provide walks, snacks, toys, beds, grooming and air conditioning. I can fit your specific needs.

About: Caring for animals has been a lifelong passion of mine! Growing up, I was the neighborhood’s go to pet sitter, doing everything from feeding, walking, and bathing dogs to making sure local cats were well cared for and loved. Over the past five years, I’ve expanded my hands-on experience by fostering rescue dogs through a local shelter. I’ve cared for pets across every stage of life from 10 week old puppies requiring extra patience and routine, to gentle seniors and cats who love a calm, comfortable space. Why Choose Me: • Experienced with Dogs & Cats: Comfortable with energy levels, playtime, feeding schedules, and unique personalities for both dogs and cats. • Shelter & Foster Background: Attentive to animal body language, respecting boundaries, and managing distinct temperaments. • Dependable & Detail-Oriented: I strictly stick to your pet’s routine, house rules, and care preferences so they feel secure and happy while you’re away. Whether your fur baby needs an energetic walk, structured feeding, or cuddles during a drop-in visit, I treat every pet in my care like my own! I work part-time at night just a few days a week, which leaves my daytime hours completely open! Whether your pup needs midday walks and playtime, or your cat needs dedicated drop-in visits, feeding, and extra attention, I have near open weekday and weekend daytime availability to give your pets all the care and cuddles they need. While I don’t currently have pets of my own in my home, my condominium is extremely pet-friendly with plenty of open, grassy space for walks, exercise, and playtime! If you’d like your dog to socialize, there are many friendly neighborhood pups to meet and if they prefer solo space, that’s completely fine, too. Most importantly, I am extremely respectful of your specific rules, timelines, and care routines, and I 100% guarantee your instructions will always be followed to the letter!

It's clear how much she cares for animals, and I could tell Percy was well taken care of. Knowing she's someone I can trust makes all the difference. If you're looking for wonderful rover look no further!”

About: I have owned and cared for pots of all types and kinds since I was a child, particularly cats and dogs. As an adult, I have owned three dogs and four cats and deeply enjoy the experience of being a pet parent myself. I have cared for, walked, fed, and watched overnight for many length of days many cats and dogs for my friends, family and professionally. I understand the nuances of what is required for individual pet care and how to follow directions carefully. I'm in excellent communicator and want to ensure that my pet parents that I work for are kept in the loop and feel comfortable with my service! I take special care to ensure that each individual pet is cared for in the way that they need and particularly to ensure that no animal is ever let out without being on the leash or let out at all if they are a cat. I genuinely enjoy playing with cats and dogs and making sure that they get the adequate exercise and stimulation that they need. I look forward to caring for your pet soon! Ps, I am very strong and have experience with walking large dogs, as powerlifting is a hobby of mine in my spare time! Since I work from home part-time, I have lots of flexibility and fluidity to care for someone's pet or meet a need at the last minute. I live in Central Connecticut which is very close to every County and I'm comfortable taking a drive if needed. I have an extremely flexible schedule between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. I would only be providing services in other people's homes to let them out or feed them daily or any kind of walking or playing services. In my own home, I currently have two cats who enjoy free reign of the home. We do also have a fenced in yard fully, but at this time I would not be offering that service in my own home.

About: Hi! I’m Kari, a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to two Australian Shepherds. 🐾 I’ve grown up around dogs and have always had a natural love for animals, so caring for pets is something that genuinely brings me joy. I’m active, dependable, and attentive, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup needs a long walk, some playtime, companionship while you’re away, or simply a little extra love and attention, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m also very comfortable with high-energy dogs and enjoy keeping active pups entertained and exercised! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can completely trust with your furry family members. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make sure your pets get plenty of love, attention, and care. I’ll treat your pets the same way I’d want someone to treat mine. ❤️ I work part-time so I can offer plenty of playtime to your furry friends! Overnights - available Friday-Sunday Any other service - any time Sat, Sun & Monday or after 3pm Tuesday-Friday. I will do whatever you prefer to ensure your cat/dog is safe & comfortable.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, and caring for them is second nature to me. For four years, I managed a doggy daycare, giving me daily experience with everything from playful puppies to quirky adults and sweet seniors. I’ve also cared for multiple dogs at home — feeding, walking, giving medications, and keeping everyone on a routine. Big personalities, small breeds, anxious pups, confident ones… I’ve worked with them all, and I genuinely love getting to know what makes each dog unique. I work a full‑time job on weekdays, but you can count on me Friday after 5 PM and throughout the weekend. Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, or a quick drop‑in, I’m happy to help. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. In your home, I stick to your dog’s normal routine - feeding, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions you share. I’m careful with doors, gates, and household safety, and I never rush your dog into situations they’re unsure about. My goal is to create a stress‑free, happy environment.

“Emily and I met for a meet and greet rather soon after connecting on here and discussing an upcoming need. My dog instantly loved her and I asked her if we ciuld start with occasional walks leading up to the overnight stays so that he can grow comfortable with her between now and then. She was very communicative during her pop in visit and she took the time to ensure everything was locked and handled correctly. She noticed a behavior of his and took the time to ask me if it was normal / okay. She is clearly very caring and attentive to detail!”

FAQs for Dog Walking - New Britain

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in New Britain is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $22 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,489 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across New Britain. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in New Britain. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in New Britain after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Britain. On Rover:

  • 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
